Purple Leaves 4.5 weeks into flowering

What do you think is causing these purple leaves? In the pictures the spots look more brown but they are actually very purple.
I gave it too many nutes about 2 weeks back so 3 days ago i flushed and since then the brown/yellow leave tips have stopped spreading but the purpling is getting worse. I just switch from a 400 watt mh to a 400 watt hps so im hoping the bud starts growing faster.

The ph has been at 6.5 since it was a seedling but now the ph is closer to 6, is that okay or should i try to bring it back up?

Yeah...thers not much i can find about purple leaves. The only thing i can find that might cause it is low temps but im pretty sure thats not the problem. Its in the low 80s high 70s during the day and doesnt drop much below 65 at night...
